The negative space between the sprigs stops it feeling crowded, so it reads as calm rather than busy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is printed on a lightweight summer-weight cotton, 60 inches (roughly 152cm) wide, which is broad enough that most dress bodices and skirt panels cut from a single width with very little waste. The cloth has a dry, crisp handle straight off the roll and softens noticeably after the first wash.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat to make with it:\u003c\/strong\u003e A good match for shirt dresses, pyjama sets, blouses and lightweight summer trousers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 60-inch width is the main practical reason to buy cotton here rather than from a high-street haberdashery. Most printed cottons in the UK are sold at 44 inches, which means an extra half metre or more on a full skirt; at this width you usually cut the same garment from noticeably less cloth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFabric:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cotton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 60 inches \/ approx. 152cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrint:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cornflower \u0026amp; Cream Trailing Floral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrice:\u003c\/strong\u003e £7.99 per metre\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSold by:\u003c\/strong\u003e the metre, cut as one continuous length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA pre-wash before cutting allows for any first-wash shrinkage and is worth doing on every dressmaking project.

As with many natural and regenerated fibres, slight shrinkage may occur after the first wash. Always test a small piece where possible and follow suitable washing instructions for your intended use.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColour Disclaimer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlease note that colours may appear slightly different depending on your screen settings, device, and lighting conditions.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"M Textiles","offers":[{"title":"Meters","offer_id":55171365601622,"sku":null,"price":7.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1045\/5426\/6966\/files\/9ECD3634-F497-402F-958E-8D19B6706FCA.jpg?v=1787959406","url":"https:\/\/mtextilesltd.com\/products\/floral-printed-cotton-60-inches-wide-summer-lightweight-sold-in-meters-increment-9","provider":"M Textiles","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
